Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 518 The Mastermind of the Abduction Has Been Captured
“Sure.”Deirdre stretched out her hands in preparation to clean the table after Declan left, but Kyran took over the task. “I’ll do it.”“You have just only recovered from a fever. Sit down.” Deirdre was worried. Kyran smiled and said, “You cooked, so it’s my duty to do the dishes. Having moderate exercise is good for health too. You sit down.”He took the utensils from Deirdre’s hands and walked to the kitchen. He checked his phone before he walked away and found a text message from Declan. [I hope that you will think it through.]Kyran turned off the screen and walked to the kitchen. He bustled about in the kitchen while Deirdre sat on the sofa by herself until her phone rang. She picked up and heard Hoyt’s voice coming from the other end. “It’s me, Miss McKinnon.”Deirdre paused for a moment, yet she was not surprised by Hoyt’s call. They had left in a hurry, and she did not wish to disturb him, so she had left her phone number with Mrs. Cox. “Mr. Leigh, I’m sorry for t

‘Charlene has already been captured?’Deirdre was incredulous, and her grip on the phone tightened from excitement. “Are you serious?”The police officer said, “Miss McKinnon, we’re the police, so we don’t lie.”Deirdre calmed down her breathing. She had almost given up on pursuing the case and did not expect that there would be a change in the abduction investigation. After all, Charlene was Brendan’s lover. She could not possibly be captured as long as Brendan still loved her.She calmed herself with great effort. Kyran walked over and asked softly, “What’s going on? You sounded very emotional earlier.”Deirdre turned around and wrapped her arms around Kyran’s waist. “The police just called and informed me that the culprit who abducted me has been captured.”“Really?” Kyran’s gaze was tainted with ferocity at the mention of the abductor. “The police work rather quickly and haven’t disappointed us. Do you need to be at the police station now?”“Hmm, they’re asking me to identif

Noticing Deirdre’s unusual behavior, Kyran immediately turned to her and inquired softly, “What’s going on, Deirdre? Is something wrong?”The voice from the speaker continued to speak. “The reason I abducted Miss McKinnon is very simple. I don’t have money, so I wanted to blackmail and extort money to spend.”‘The voice! It’s a man’s voice!’Deirdre shook her head desperately. “This isn’t right! This isn’t right!”“What isn’t right?”Deirdre said, “Trust me, Kyran. This man is not the mastermind of my abduction!”It was no wonder the mastermind of the abduction would be found—it was no wonder that Charlene would yield obediently. It turned out that she had figured out a way to find herself a scapegoat!Deirdre’s chest was burning with anger. She felt as if the man in the interrogation room was herself in the past.On the other hand, this was precisely Charlene’s special trick!She turned a blind eye to the law, and when she got herself in trouble, she would get someone random

The police officer wanted to ask for more, but Kyran stepped in. “Sorry, but I think we’ll have to stop here. She hasn’t exactly recovered from falling off the cliff. Coupled with the abduction incident, it’s only natural that her trauma is affecting her memory recall,” he said. “Once she has some time to process the entire thing again, she might remember something. We’ll come back and give new information by that point.”Although the police officer found the resolution quite disappointing, he could get behind Kyran’s explanation. Nodding, he said, “We’re counting on you, Miss McKinnon. Please contact us as soon as you remember anything more.”They shook hands, and Deirdre left with an icy feeling in her gut. She wondered how long she was supposed to hide from the public. Was she doing right by hiding?Was it right to accept injustice without raising any alarm or standing up against it so she could move to Germia with Kyran and start all over again?Why should Charlene McKinney be

”One thing’s for sure. I don’t want anything to do with him.”Kyran steadied his breath and turned the steering wheel. “If this is the origin of your hangup, then you don’t have to worry about it at all. Brendan will never know that you’re alive. Not in his entire lifetime.”Deirdre’s eyes widened. She was taken aback and pretty perplexed. “Where’s that confidence coming from?”He studied her calmly. “You said it yourself. Charlene did all of this for Brendan. Her motive was to ensure that you’ll never be near him. In other words, it’s well within her motive to ensure Brendan knows nothing about the abduction plot or your whereabouts. If he learns about the abduction and that she’s the one behind it, do you know how bad her position’s going to be?”Deirdre bit her lips. ‘He has a point, but…’“Do you really think she’s capable of hiding the whole plot from him?” she asked under her breath.Kyran chuckled regretfully. “I wouldn’t underestimate her if I were you. She’s good at keep

The police officer thought it would be unkind to snuff out Deirdre’s hope, so he asked tactfully, “Do you have any solid proof, Miss McKinnon?”“Proof?”“We can’t sentence someone based on he-says-she-says. We need more witnesses and evidence.”“Don’t I count as an eyewitness?”“You do, but since you’re blind, the defendant can easily weasel her way out of this accusation. It’s really hard to make a solid case if you’re the sole witness.”A person came into Deirdre’s mind—and the color in her eyes darkened. She thinned her lips. “I… I know another eyewitness, but I don’t know if she’s willing to help. Regardless, I’m willing to try. Can you help me summon this person? Then I’ll talk to her alone.”Maeve O’Keefe was brought in a while later. Despite her seemingly calm expression, she was gripping the edge of her skirt tightly as though she had predicted this outcome. The police escorted her into an interrogation room, where Deirdre was already waiting.The older woman almost coul

Deirdre had become sure of herself, confident, regal, and imposing, like, well… that man…Maeve’s shock gradually transitioned into feeling sorry for her. “Alright. I’ll do it. I’ll testify against McKinney.”“Thank you.” Deirdre nodded politely at her and left her seat. The police officer greeted her and entered the room after her. Kyran covered her with his coat and praised her. “You were excellent.”“Really?” Deirdre forced herself to smile through her fatigue. “I probably looked stoic and purely rational in there, but I was barely controlling my sadness and anger. I guess I’m just not mature enough.”“No, you’re wrong. You’re very mature. What you felt stemmed from your disappointment against her. That’s why you felt sad and angry.”Deirdre flashed him a pained smile. She cleared her throat and hoped all her emotions went down into her gut like a heavy load. “Reason tells me it’s only natural for a mother to do what she did. She was trying to save her daughter, her own flesh

After a long beat, Kyran finally found his voice. “And Steven?”“Fled.” Declan took another sharp inhale of smoke. “He is a smart man who knows you all too well. He foresaw things going south way ahead and withdrew his savings before disappearing. It’s impossible to find him.”Kyran’s eyes were nailed to the document. A maelstrom was kicking up in his chest, pressing itself against the inside of his chest and stinging him so much that his face turned white. It took him a while to recover. Exhaling a few breaths, he said, “He had no motive. He wouldn’t even have gained anything from it.”Declan flashed him a smile. “That much is obvious. What could he possibly gain from doing all of this to Deirdre? Nothing. As such, someone else must have ordered him to. Now, I don’t have any solid proof yet, but I’m sure who that mastermind could be. Question is… Do you want to hear it?’Kyran did not even blink. “Charlene.”“Huh? Right on the first strike. Only two people could have gained fro

"Where is she?"Brendan stared at him, utterly surprised. Sean's voice trembled a bit, but his eyes held a clear and hopeful gaze.Brendan finally calmed down and looked behind him. "There, that's your mother."This was the first time Sean had spoken. Deirdre felt her mind buzzing. When she snapped back to reality, she extended her hand. "Sean, come here."Sean's eyes held gentle amazement. He was intelligent—perhaps he had sensed it on the way there. Thus, his feelings were a blend of happiness and satisfaction.He felt joy that Deirdre was going to be his mother.Being a kid, he took a few steps but couldn't stop his tears, holding onto Deirdre firmly.Deirdre suppressed her own urge to cry and crouched down, wiping away his tears.

Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1572 The Parkers is Entrusted to You
"I was too young back then, still sulking with my father," Brendan replied after recalling his childhood.Arthur chuckled. "Kids will be kids, after all. Besides, your father was an excellent businessman, and you've followed in his footsteps. I've heard about your impressive success with the business in Neve. You're truly talented. With the Parkers under your control, I can finally relax." Brendan thought it was just praise from an elder. He was about to give a humble response when he got surprised by the rest of the statement. This made him freeze in place."The Parkers?" Deirdre was equally surprised."What's wrong?" Arthur beamed. "Don't you both already have children? Although you've divorced, your relationship is still strong. Don't tell me there's no thought of remarriage?""Remarriage? It's not the right time yet." Deirdre blushed from the teasing."It'll come eventually. If that's the case, then you are both part of the Parkers now. You're my only daughter, and he's my s
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1571 Revenge and Redemption
Beneath the envelope lay the evidence. Deirdre stared at it for a long time, with Brendan by her side, offering silent support.The next day, they boarded a plane back to Southedge. Within three days, news of the top political figure's downfall due to corruption spread like wildfire throughout Southedge, even captivating the interest of other cities.Upon learning the full story in his study, Arthur's aging face was stained with tears of regret. "If only I had known sooner... I wouldn't have let your mother leave like that."Deirdre lowered her gaze and handed the letter to Arthur. "My mother explains in the letter that her departure was a voluntary sacrifice to protect everyone. She never blamed you."Arthur gazed at the letter, struggling to find the right words.Deirdre left silently, shutting the door.-Ryker was also brought to the police station. Under Sterling's methods, he confessed to the murders. Emily faced the same outcome.All of them waited for their trials.-
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1570 The Evidence to Turn the Tables
The distance from Southedge to Village Alnwick was immense, yet Brendan displayed unwavering resolve."Then let's depart today," he said.As Deirdre bid farewell to Arthur, an unexpected glimmer of sadness flickered in his eyes. "Visiting your mother's grave, huh? Okay, go ahead. Take care of yourself, don't overexert.""Yes," Deirdre replied. Faced with Arthur's hesitant gaze, she felt compelled to add, "Dad, I'll be back."Arthur met Deirdre's gaze, hope rekindling in his eyes.Deirdre softly sighed. "You're my father, my family. Of course, I'll return." "Really? You mean it?" Arthur's excitement made his hands tremble slightly. He held onto Deirdre as if wanting to convey something, but all that emerged was a murmur, "Then please return early... Come back as soon as you can...""Sure. I have a friend coming over later today. Take care of him. Oh, and my boyfriend is here, too. Don't worry about the specifics. I'll explain everything upon my return."As she stepped out, Bren
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1569 Back to Village Alnwick
"Brendan Brighthall?" Ryker wiped away his own nosebleed. "How did you manage to come from Neve? Didn't I ask Emily to keep an eye on you? That useless fool who can't even accomplish simple tasks.""Choosing to control minds with drugs all along, you should have anticipated this outcome." Brendan acted roughly. As he got up, he took the key from Ryker and placed Ryker on a chair.Deirdre clenched Brendan's sleeve tightly. Sensing her tension, Brendan embraced her to calm her down."It's okay. I'm sorry for coming back so late, making you go through this.""It's not your fault. Your timely arrival saved me from further trouble. It's my own foolishness... I let him find something to use against me," Deirdre said, shaking her head weakly.Brendan frowned, cupping Deirdre's face. "He wasn't someone easily deceived, to begin with. You've done well. I'm the one who brought you into this danger, which is unforgivable."Brendan's dark eyes were filled with intense emotions. He had arrive

Deirdre hugged Ryker, resting her head on his chest as he patted her back. "By the way, you're not curious about where I went after I left early this morning?"Deirdre realized the hidden meaning behind Ryker's words, retreated from Ryker's embrace little by little, and looked at him.Ryker's eyes, as enigmatic as ever, held a clarity that seemed to pierce through everything. "I went to the hospital."He didn't wait for Deirdre to respond. "Because I was curious why I was so sleepy last night for no reason. Any ordinary person might chalk it up to exhaustion. But I know my body too well. You drugged me."Deirdre felt a sudden chill running down her spine.Ryker took a step forward casually, but his eyes were full of killing intent. "I underestimated you, Deirdre. Your acting skills are far more impressive than I imagined. You nearly had me fooled. You deserve an Oscar. What a pity that you're now in my hands."Deirdre retreated abruptly, but she found a cold wall barring her esca
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1567 The Key
Deirdre was momentarily stunned as she watched Arthur search around the study. Eventually, he uncovered a rusty key from a drawer.Arthur raised the key. "Is this what your mother desired?"Deirdre's mind raced, thoughts swirling. "Is this from my mother?"A hint of disappointment shadowed Arthur's eyes as he nodded. "This is the only thing she left me before she departed. She didn't explain why. She just made me promise to keep this key and never search for her."Although I agreed, the thought of it weighed heavily on me. So, I hid the key in a corner of the drawer instead of treating it like any other possession. In hindsight, I shouldn't have made that promise. I shouldn't have let her go alone."Deirdre's voice wavered, confusion evident. But as realization dawned, her heart raced. "Can you give me the key?"Arthur earnestly nodded, his expression solemn. "This belongs to your mother. I'm willing to give it to you whenever you're ready. To be honest, I'm relieved to pass it o
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1566 Something From Mother
The butler nodded and guided Deirdre to the study's door. Gathering her emotions, she pushed it open.Arthur's attention was on some documents, but the door's creak made him look up. He met Deirdre's gaze, causing a subtle flicker of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes."Deirdre..." He set aside the file. "Did you just wake up? Hungry? I'll have the kitchen prepare something."Deirdre shook her head, closing the door gently."Not hungry. I came to talk.""Everything okay?" Concern colored Arthur's expression. Though he seemed worried she might leave, he tried to hide it. "Go ahead. I'm with you."Deirdre found his reaction slightly amusing. "I'm not leaving."A spark returned to Arthur's eyes. "Then what's up?"As Deirdre grew more serious, she said, "I came to Southedge not just for a visit. I want to know if my mother left something with you before she passed. Something significant.""Left something?" Arthur was puzzled. "She left several things. Which one do you mean?"De
Resent, Reject, Regret Chapter 1565 He's His Child
Brendan's eyes held a hint of pity as he spoke hesitantly. "Your mother took that item away."He gently touched Deirdre's face. "That man kidnapped your mother years ago. I don't know what happened during that time. Maybe he hurt your mother and wanted to keep her forcibly. Eventually, your mother found a chance to escape back to your father with the man's item."She left suddenly while pregnant with you, not out of hatred for your father, but to protect you. Now, that person is unsure if your mother or Arthur has the item. Thus, he aimed to kidnap both you and your father, taking his time to retrieve them."Deirdre's mind was overwhelmed, flooded with information that threatened to drown her. This unexpected revelation left her in disbelief.'My mother left my father because of me? And the mastermind behind Ryker is responsible for my mother's kidnapping?'"So that item holds significant importance for this person, enough to bring him down, right?" Deirdre forced herself to calm
